a Courtesy Appreciate d

When it was announced last week that
Admiral Seymour intended sending Ii,
B. NJ. ship Caroline to Tacoma, two of
the former branch pilats of Puget Sound,
Captains James Dalg ardno and Nelson
T. Oliver, requested Mr.. James G. Swan,
secretary to the last board of pilot COM
missioners, to tender their services as
pilots to the admiral, to take the ship to
Tacoma. Mr.. Swan wrote to Edgar
Grove Baker, secretary eff the pilGt COM
missioners of Victoria, who transmitted
the letter to the admiral, who was then
on Ii. B. NJ. S. Triumph, at Vancouver.
Admiral Seymour replied in letter, of
which the following is copy:
II. NJ. S. TRIUMPH,
Vancouver, B. O., june 30, 'ST.
Dear Sir:-I have received through
Mr.. Edward Grove Baker your letter Of
the 9th inst, stating that Pilots James
Dalgarduo and Nelson T. Oliver, OF the
Puget Sound pilots, had offered their
services to pio. Her Majesty's ship Caro-
lire TO Tacoma, and request you will be
kind enough to thank them for their
offer, and say that the Caroline will not
require pilot. am,
Yours faithfully,
n. c. SEYMOUR,
Rear Admiral, Conn der in Chief.
j. G. SWAN, ESQ,
Port Townsend, Wash. Terr.
The offer of services by Pilots Dali
gardno and Oliver was simply an act of
courtesy, which was acknowledged by
the admiral in his courteous reply. We
are pleased to notice the foregoing as an
evidence OF the friendly feeling between
the people OF Puget Sound and our
neighbors of British Columbia.

Capt. Jack Runsby on the New Depar
ture.

The Port Admiral says that the flag
staff he superintended raising at the
Swedish and Norwegian vice-consulate
on the bluff, is just four seconds from
true meridian altitude, and in order TO
find the true departure you must run up
the Willamette meridian until s E Il E
of the staff, then make an offset with
your dividers OF one cable length and
four fathoms, and the western leg of the
compass will come down on the exact
spot where the staff is planted. Then
overhaul your Bowdi:ch's navigator, and
in the fourth table OF logarithms the
exact locality in feet and inches is de.
fined, and when found make note OF it.
A vessel clearing from here and getting
fair start from that flagstaff can be
navigated by dead reckoning to any
part of the world without the aid of
chronometer or lunar observations.
What the Port Admiral says is good
and there is no appeal from his decision.

The declaration of the Hon. John Ellis,
the editor Of the st. John Globe, in favor of
annexation has stirred New Brunswick poll
tics to its lowest depths. The Tories are
delighted, of course, because it tends to
prove what they have always claimed, that
commercial union is but little removed from
political union, and that the dividing line be-
tween them is so obscure that it is easily
overstepped. The Liberals, on the other
hand, are in a state OF CONSERVATION,
and are doing their best to offset the
effect Of Mr.. Ellis's declaration on their
party by vigorously denouncing its au-
thor. The Telegraph, the leading Liberal
organ of st. John, calls upon Mr.. Ellis to re-
sign his seat in the Dominion Parliament,
telling him that by advocating annexation he
has practically violated his oath Of allegiance
to the Dominion. 1t tells Mr.. Ellis that he
has jeopardized Dominion interests in the
fishery negotiations, accusing him Of saying
in effect to the United States, ''Do not settle
the fisheries question; do not arrange better
trade relations; the Canadians are ready
to give up fisheries, flag, country and all, for
privilege of annexation" Mr.. Ellis however
shows no sign Of following the Telegraph
advice to resign, and bears up quite cheer
fully under the denuneiations of his whilom
political brethren. We suspect that the
chief difference between him and a good
many of his fellow citizens is that he is more
frank than they. The advantages to flow
from annexation must be as apparent to
them as to him. 1t is not likely however
that his frankness has benefited his cause
On the contrary the signs point quite other

The ADMINISTRATIONS Tariff BIN.

The administration has prepared tariff
bill, or had one prepared, in consonance with
its views, and after recess 1t will go to the
ways and means committee. 1t is endorsed
by Speaker Carlisle and probably also by the
other free traders on the Democratic side.
The total amount Of reductions which this
bill proposes is $62,000,000. The internal
revenue is not touched, but the tariff on
imports is the single point of attack.
$12,000,000 Of this reduction to be made by
putting wool, SALT lumber, coal and a few
other less important articles on the free list,
and the remainder is to be secured by a re-
duction on iron and steel and wooden goods.
1t will be seen that about four-ffths of the
reduction is to be secured by simply cutting
down the tariff, not by taking it off alto
gether. The computation is made on tine
basis of last years importation. Now it is
evident that If this bill becomes law and
the imports of the goods on which the tariff
Is reduced are the same next year as last the
reduction sought will be obtained. If the
imports increase to any extent then reduc-
ton will not be obtained to the full amount
desired How far 1t will fall short depends
of course on the amount Of the increase of
imports. 1t may be so great as to prevent any
reduction at all. In 1882 the Republicans
reduced the tariff on certain goods. The
result was that importations were so stimu-
lated that instead of a decrease in the aggre-
gate Of the duties received from the tariff on
these goods, there was a substantial in
crease. The first and chief object of Con-
gress ought to be to reduce the surplus 1t
is not from the tariff per Sc or the internal
revenue taxes that the country is suffering.
but because the proceeds Of that tariff and
those internal revenue taxes. or a great part
Of them, are lying idle in the treasury be-
cause large amount Of money which the
business Of the country needs is locked up in
the treasury without any way to get it back
into the hands Of the people. The problem
for Congress to solve is how to put an end to
the accumulation in the treasury Of what
the business of the country requires should be
in circulation. There is only one practicable
solution. The income of the government
must be reduced. So the first essential of
any bill to remedy the present state Of things
Is that 1t will reduce that income Does the
administration tariff bill meet that require
mentP That must be largely matter of
speculation. Nobody can foresee the precise
result OF mere reduction Of the tariff.

Senator Blair has introduced his educa-
tional bill again and feels confident that II
will go through the Senate easily. 1t was
passed by the Senate in the last Congress
but was stopped in the House. That very
likely will be its fate this session. Th'
measure is well meant attempt to promote
education at the South. but whether it will
accomplish all, or even large part of the
good that its author anticipates, is doubtful
The danger is that it may tend to get the
States into the habit of relying upon the gen.
eral government to do for them what they
ought to do for themselves. Some safe
guards against this tendency the bill con
tains, but whether they are sufficient il

Thele seems to be some prospect that the
Canadian fish commissioner will return to
Washington after vacation less inexorable
in his demands and inclined to ccncede some
thing for the sake of settlement Of the con-
troversy between the government and the
Dominion. What has caused this change. If
one has really taken place, is obscure, but
very likely the home government has been
bringing some influence to bear. England
never took any more than very languid in
terest in her colony's quarrel, and would no
doubt have been glad to have seen it settled
long ago, even at the entire sacrifice of what
Canada called her rights.

Mr. Drummond again falls to meet the
point He had attempted to reconcile his
Interpretation Of prind fdcie evidence with
Judge Bonney's ruling in the Guppy case on
the ground that that case was in the nature
of a civil action. But we pointed out that
the Judge had considered it in the nature of
a criminal prosecution so far as the degree
of proof necessary was concerned inasmuch
as be ruled that the jury must be convinced
beyond a reasonable doubt before they could
return verdict. The only effect of the decis-
ion of the Supreme Court we cited was to show
that he could not have treated it otherwise.
If that decision has been overruled then it fol-
lows that he could have treated it otherwise.
The material question is however, how he did
treat it in applying the rules of evidence. If
he treated it as a civil action why did he in
struct the jury that they must be convinced
beyond a reasonable doubt? If he treated it
as as a criminal action then why, if he agrees
with Mr.. Drummond that prina facie evil
dence is conclusive only in civil actions,
did he rule that the payment of a liquor
tax was conclusive in this case? Mr..
Drummond's attention is respectfully called
TO these points.

When articles are put ON the free list then
we know exactly how much the revenue will
be reduced. But the effect of mere reduc-

proposed reduction of the surplus. Is it a
safe reliance? Past experience says no.

The ceremonies at Augusta, yesterday,
drew together very large concourse of peo-
pie. Representative men from all parts of the
State, and from other States, were present,
to join in paying the last tribute to one who.
by his uprightness and sincerity, his consci-
entious performance of duty both in private
life and official station, and his philanthro-
ply, had won the admiration and respect
of all who knew him or knew Of him. The
ceremonies were BETTING the solemn nature
of the occasion and the grand character Of
the deceased. The sorrow of the people was
genuine and sincere. In every mind the
thought was uppermost that good man had
departed, and that in his death the State had
lost an able and upright chief magistrate,
and public-spirited, helpful, just and phi
lanthropic citizen.
